(Anonymous) 2013-06-18 01:59 am (UTC)(link)"But Moffat tries to pretend that the Doctor lies about everything for no reason, and that he's always done so, and pretend that it's some kind of "rule" for him"
Moffat's fond of characters who are sociopaths (who do, indeed, lie about everything for no reason). While that's fine, that's his trademark (he made Sherlock freaking Holmes a sociopath as well), the only problem with that is he made the Doctor a sociopath.
So, either Moffat is incapable of writing multiple characters with different nuances/quirks/features (wasn't there a secret about that here), or he just wants to write a sociopath character into everything he writes, because he thinks it's cool, engaging, nifty, whatever (he's wrong BTW), or he's unconsciously writing every character he drafts as a sociopath. *shrug* Maybe Moffat IS a sociopath himelf?? That would certainly explain a lot, like why he's so in love with sociopathic characters.
Unfortunately for us, this does tend to get repetitive after awhile. Also annoying, in that neither the Doctor nor Sherlock Holmes are sociopaths, and Moffat is doing a grave injustice to both characters by turning them into sociopaths, IMO.

Except he doesn't really make them actual sociopaths, he just makes them jerks (which I'm more or less ok with regarding Sherlock; canonically Holmes could be a bit cold... the Doctor, otoh...). Calling Sherlock a sociopath just shows Moffat's ignorance and love of buzzwords.
